Linux is another Operating System. Some people like it, but I don't
lol It's more for a large business... Anyway... Let's try the basic routine steps... Have you scanned for viruses and Spyware? Is there another user on this computer? Are there any Internet control setting installed such as Firewalls and Parental Controls? The change in OS should not make a difference... What sites are these? If they are forums for example, you might have been banned.... Or, if you are visiting a page, it might have been altered by it's host... So check to make sure this happens on other computers before assuming it's yours. Let us know when you get this information
